    Real Madrid's Interest in Martin Zubimendi

    Real Madrid have shown interest in signing Martin Zubimendi as a replacement for Rodri, with Arsenal demanding €90m. Zubimendi is praised for his tactical intelligence and control ability, but Real Madrid's management has reportedly ruled him out due to his artistic abilities not matching the team's high requirements and the inflated transfer fee. Jose Mourinho has not asked for his signing, and Real Madrid are not considering it this summer.

    Japan Introduces Domestic AI in SDF Command System for 'AI Sovereignty'

    The Japanese government is introducing artificial intelligence (AI) in the Self-Defense Force's (SDF) command and control operations for the first time. The government aims to secure 'AI sovereignty' by entrusting this role to Japanese-made models, excluding Chinese AI and limiting the use of advanced American AI to military data analysis. This move is part of global efforts to adapt to 'new ways of war' and enhance the speed and accuracy of decisions made by SDF commanders. The policy is expected to be included in the 'Three Security Documents' to be revised at the end of the year.
